SAN copolymer is a synthetic polymer used as a film former in personal care and cosmetics products, given its opaque properties, and is seen in a host of formulas, including those for sunscreens and other lotions.
Global Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene Market: Global Size, Trends, Competitive, Historical & Forecast Analysis, 2021-2027- Factors such as increasing growth of automotive industry, adoption of ABS in automotive sector, various advantages of ABS in transportation, construction, electronics and other industries are some of the major factors driving the market growth.
*Indian Automobile Industry-
Being a great substitute to metals, ABS has been extensively used in manufacturing automotive parts .India is also a prominent auto exporter and has strong export growth expectations for the near future. In addition, several initiatives by the Government of India and major automobile players in the Indian market is expected to make India one of the leaders in the two-wheeler and four-wheeler market in the world by 2022.
*Appliances and Consumer Electronics (ACE) market-
The Indian government has been encouraging to consumer durable brands in India to ‘Make in India’ thereby expecting they should be self-reliant for the future. The Government of India has allowed 100% Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) under the automatic route in Electronics Systems Design and Manufacturing sector.(ACE) market is expected to increase at 9% CAGR to reach ` 3.15 trillion in 2022. Demand growth is likely to accelerate with rising disposable income and easy access to credit. Increasing electrification of rural areas and wide usability of online sales would also aid growth in demand. The government anticipates that the Indian electronics manufacturing sector will reach ~US$ 300 billion by 2024-25.
*Indian auto-components industry-
Auto-components industry accounts for 7.1% of India’s GDP. A stable government framework, increased purchasing power, large domestic market, and an ever-increasing development in infrastructure have made India a favorable destination for investment. The Indian auto-components industry is set to become the third largest in the world by 2025.exports of auto components grew by 76% to US$ 9.3 billion. As per the Automobile Component Manufacturers Association ACMA forecast, automobile component exports from India are expected to reach US$ 80 billion by 2026. The Indian auto components industry is expected to reach US$ 200 billion in revenue by 2026.
*3-D PRINTING MARKET GROWTH –
According to reports, the 3d printing India market is growing at 20% every year. It is expected that the 3d printing market will jump from $12.6 billion (in 2020) to $37.2 billion in 2026.
In 2022 and beyond, we will see more applications of metal 3d printing in the automotive, aerospace, and healthcare industries. It will open up several new opportunities to build prototypes, rapid tooling, functional parts manufacturing, and more. Several large-scale steel and aluminium manufacturing companies are collaborating with 3d printing companies to stay competitive in the global markets.
Industries that will adopt 3-D printing culture –
1.automobile-The automotive industry in India is growing at a rapid pace. Several international companies are expanding their presence in the Indian market to sell more vehicles than ever before. With increasing demand, the need for 3d printed parts will also increase in 2022.
2.Healthcare-3d printing in healthcare is a new trend in India that will gather more momentum in 2022. Several applications of 3d printing technology have already been used in the medical industry to create custom-made implants, models, and other tools for surgical purposes. Several companies are working on this technology to reduce the cost of treatment by cutting down recovery times significantly. By using 3d printing, the total cost of several implants and other tools will become possible to cut down significantly.
3.Defense -The Defense industry is one of the essential industries in India that will adopt 3d printing on a larger scale in 2022. Not only does it help to develop new weapons faster, but it also cut down production costs significantly. Moreover, it will remove foreign companies’ dependency on machinery and help the country with a significant competitive advantage over its geopolitical rivals.
4.Education-3d printing India has already made its presence felt in the education sector. Several schools and universities are using 3d printers to teach students about additive manufacturing. They get access to several designs and learn about the process of production at an early stage in their careers.

. overall review of financials their are some areas where company may suffer pain but their is no massive fundamental change in company.
risk for company -
After rebounding to an estimated 5.5% in 2021, global growth is expected to decelerate markedly in 2022 - to 4.1 %, reflecting continued COVID-19 flare-ups.• Due to inflation spike, commodity prices are going to go up. In that case, company’s expenditure on raw material cost will increase. products manufacturing is heavily dependent
on raw material they import from other countries (Acrylonitrile, Butadiene, Styrene ) significant increase in global prices of this material would act as a key risk to profitability.
TECHNICAL ANALYSIS -
It will be value buy if anyone could accumulate this stock at level around 75 to 80 price range. at present value of stock interested buyer may accumulate first tranche.
